• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Last question about 400 enduro (sorry)

that will be your trouble, it may seem ok but it will be leaking in somewhere. as the intake vacuum builds, it opens the air leak and everything suddenly changes and the motor stops. if it opens it slowly, you get a gradual leaning (like the fuel is turned off) and it starts to rev for no reason. sound familiar??? heh?

Of to SUDCO you go young man and get a new manifold. (google them and all will be revealed)

Yea haha im praying this is it. I believe the part number is 16-15-302-01 but all i can seem to find is ones for 85+ unless those fit? Im not being lazy but I can't seem to pinpoint a good place
 
they used the same intake manifold on 1985-88 250 400 430 and the later 500's
you have the correct part number in 16 15 302-01
any 38mm carb manifold from these years, there are aftermarket ones too, Up-Tite and factory Husqvarna 2 piece, they are aluminum with a Mikuni mount
test your intake, start it get it to idle, move the carb as much as you can without being aggressive (with the air cleaner attached), or use carburetor spray around the manifold and make sure it's the flammable type, test by lighting the spray, outside of your garage of course
